CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a national stage application under 35 U.S.C. 371 andclaims the benefit of PCT Application No. PCT/JP2019/024075 having aninternational filing date of 18 Jun. 2019, which designated the UnitedStates, which PCT application claimed the benefit of Japanese PatentApplication No. 2018-140217, filed 26 Jul. 2018, the entire disclosuresof each of which are incorporated herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor device, andspecifically to a semiconductor device which includes a field effecttransistor having a nanowire structure or a nanosheet structure.

BACKGROUND ART

Regarding scaling trends of advanced MOS transistors after 2012, aMOSFET having a bulk-planar structure was dominant until 20 nmgeneration. After 14 nm generation, however, a FET having a Finstructure (referred to as a “Fin-FET” for convenience) or a FET havingan FD-SOI (Fully Depleted-Silicon On Insulator) structure (referred toas an “FD-SOI-FET” for convenience) has been thoroughly adopted.Meanwhile, a thickness of a silicon layer having a close relation withscaling of a gate length, i.e., a thickness of the Fin structure in aFin-FET, and a thickness of a silicon layer in an FD-SOI-FET areimportant factors for size reduction of an FET. It is considered that aminimum thickness of the silicon layer is limited to 5 nm.

As a technology for eliminating this limitation on the thickness of thesilicon layer constituting a channel forming region of a FET, a fieldeffect transistor (referred to as a “nanowire-FET” for convenience)having a nanowire structure in a channel forming region has been studied(for example, see Japanese Patent Laid-open No. 2015-195405). Thenanowire-FET has at least two nanowire structures. In addition, thenanowire-FET thus configured is driven in a range from 0.5 to 0.8 volts,for example.

On the other hand, a semiconductor device is often required to have notonly the nanowire-FET, but also a field effect transistor driven in arange from 1.5 to 3.3 volts (referred to as a “second FET” forconvenience), for example.

<General Description of Semiconductor Device According to First andSecond Aspects of Present Disclosure>

In a semiconductor device of a first aspect of the present disclosure,assuming that a distance between a surface of a base and a channelforming layer of a second field effect transistor is a distance L₂, amode satisfying the following relation may be adopted.L ₂ ≥L ₁L ₂ ≥T ₂

In this case, a preferable mode satisfying the following relation may beadopted.L ₂≥2×L ₁

In the semiconductor device of the first aspect of the presentdisclosure including the above preferable mode, assuming that athickness of a gate insulation film of a first field effect transistoris T₁, a mode satisfying the following relation may be adopted.T ₂≥2×T ₁A preferable mode satisfying the following relation may be adopted.T ₂≥3×T ₁By adopting such mode, the second field effect transistor having a gateinsulation film relatively thick with respect to the first field effecttransistor can be obtained reliably.

Moreover, in the semiconductor device of the first aspect of the presentdisclosure including the respective preferable modes described above,assuming that a thickness of a channel portion is T_(1-CH) and that athickness of a channel forming layer is T_(2-CH), a mode satisfying thefollowing relation may be adopted.T _(2-CH)≥2×T _(1-CH)

A preferable mode satisfying the following relation may be adopted.T _(2-CH)≥3×T _(1-CH)By adopting such mode, lowering of resistance of the channel forminglayer of the second field effect transistor, raising of transconductanceg_(m), and reduction of parasitic capacitance are achievable.

Further, in the semiconductor device of the first aspect of the presentdisclosure including the respective preferable modes described above, atleast a part of a channel portion in a lowermost layer constituting thefirst field effect transistor is surrounded by a first gate electrode,and a channel portion other than this channel portion is surrounded by asecond gate electrode in an adoptable mode. In a case where the channelportion in the lowermost layer constituting the first field effecttransistor is surrounded by the first gate electrode, an insulationlayer (referred to as a “first insulation layer” in some cases forconvenience) is formed between the first gate electrode and the surfaceof the base.

A structure formed such that at least a part of the channel portion inthe lowermost layer constituting the first field effect transistor issurrounded by the first gate electrode and that the channel portionother than this channel portion is surrounded by the second gateelectrode is applicable to a first field effect transistor of asemiconductor device according to a second aspect of the presentdisclosure.

As described above, the gate insulation film is formed between the firstgate electrode and the channel portion of the first field effecttransistors and between the second gate electrode and the channelportion of the first field effect transistor. Specifically, in the firstfield effect transistor, a gate insulation film (i.e., a gate insulationfilm formed on the outer peripheral portion of the channel portion)surrounding the channel portion located below and a gate insulation film(i.e., a gate insulation film formed on the outer peripheral portion ofthe channel portion) surrounding the channel portion located above areformed between the channel portions. Moreover, a gate electrode isprovided between the respective gate insulation films. In such manner, aspace between the channel portions is filled with the gate insulationfilm and the gate electrode. The total height of the channel portion isthe sum total of diameters of materials (e.g., Si, SiGe, Ge, and InGaAs)constituting a nanowire structure forming the channel portion except forthe gate insulation film and the gate electrode or the sum total ofthicknesses of materials (e.g., Si, SiGe, Ge, and InGaAs) constituting ananosheet structure except for the gate insulation film and the gateelectrode. The foregoing discussion is applicable to the first fieldeffect transistor of the semiconductor device according to the secondaspect of the present disclosure.

In the following description, a gate electrode constituting the secondfield effect transistor will be referred to as a “third gate electrode”in some cases for convenience. In addition, in the second field effecttransistor of the semiconductor device of the first aspect of thepresent disclosure, the third gate electrode surrounds at least a partof the gate insulation layer. In this case, the third gate electrodesurrounds the gate insulation layer in one mode or surrounds a part ofthe gate insulation layer in another mode. In the former case, the thirdgate electrode is formed between the surface of the base and the gateinsulation layer via an insulation layer (referred to as a “secondinsulation layer” in some cases for convenience). A thickness of thesecond insulation layer is larger than a thickness of the firstinsulation layer described above. On the other hand, in the latter case,the third gate electrode is formed on a top surface and a side surfaceof the channel forming layer via the gate insulation layer, but notbetween the surface of the base and the gate insulation layer in a stateof L₂=T₂.

Further, in the semiconductor device according to the first aspect ofthe present disclosure including the respective preferable modes andconfigurations described above or the semiconductor device according tothe second aspect of the present disclosure, the following mode may beadopted.

The second field effect transistor includes an n-channel type fieldeffect transistor and a p-channel type field effect transistor.

A channel forming layer of the n-channel type field effect transistor ismade of silicon (Si).

A channel forming layer of the p-channel type field effect transistor ismade of silicon (Si) or silicon-germanium (SiGe).

Further, in the semiconductor device according to the first aspect ofthe present disclosure including the respective preferable modes andconfigurations described above or the semiconductor device according tothe second aspect of the present disclosure including the preferablemode described above, the following mode may be adopted.

The first field effect transistor includes an n-channel type fieldeffect transistor and a p-channel type field effect transistor.

A channel portion of the n-channel type field effect transistor is madeof silicon (Si).

A channel portion of the p-channel type field effect transistor is madeof silicon-germanium (SiGe), germanium (Ge), or InGaAs.

However, this mode is not required to be adopted, and the following modemay be adopted.

The channel portion of the n-channel type field effect transistor ismade of silicon-germanium (SiGe).

The channel portion of the p-channel type field effect transistor ismade of silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), or InGaAs.

Another mode is adoptable. Specifically, the channel portion of then-channel type field effect transistor is made of germanium (Ge).

The channel portion of the p-channel type field effect transistor ismade of silicon (Si), silicon-germanium (SiGe), or InGaAs.

A further mode is adoptable. Specifically, the channel portion of then-channel type field effect transistor is made of InGaAs.

The channel portion of the p-channel type field effect transistor ismade of silicon (Si), silicon-germanium (SiGe), or germanium (Ge).

In the semiconductor device according to the second aspect of thepresent disclosure including the respective preferable modes describedabove, the following mode may be adopted. Reverse bias is applied to thebase at a portion facing the bottom surface of the channel forming layervia the insulation material layer.

According to the semiconductor device of the second aspect of thepresent disclosure including the respective preferable modes describedabove, assuming that a thickness of the channel portion is T_(1-CH) andthat a thickness of the insulation material layer is T_(ins), a modesatisfying the following relation may be adopted.0.2≤T _(1-CH) /T _(Ins)≤2preferably,0.5≤T _(1-CH) /T _(Ins)≤1

Further, in the semiconductor device according to the second aspect ofthe present disclosure including the preferable modes described above,the following configuration may be adopted. At least one semiconductorlayer is formed between the channel forming layer and the insulationmaterial layer in the second field effect transistor. In addition, inthis case, adoptable is a configuration where an interlayer insulationlayer is formed between the channel forming layer and the semiconductorlayer and between the semiconductor layers. In this manner, reverse biasis applicable by applying appropriate potential to the semiconductorlayer. Further, in these cases, the semiconductor layer may have aconductivity type opposite to a conductivity type of the channel forminglayer. According to a MOSFET having a GAA (Gate-All-Around) structurewhere an entire outer periphery of a channel forming region issurrounded by a gate electrode, a threshold voltage V_(th) is normallydetermined only by a work function of a material constituting the gateelectrode. However, the threshold voltage V_(th) is controllable byapplying reverse bias, and thus, a desired threshold voltage V_(th)optimum for a circuit is allowed to be set. For example, a circuit speedcan be raised by lowering the threshold voltage V_(th), and a low leakcurrent can be achieved by increasing the threshold voltage V_(th).

According to the semiconductor device of the first and second aspects ofthe present disclosure including the preferred modes and configurationsdescribed above (hereinafter collectively referred to as the“semiconductor device of the present disclosure” in some cases), thefollowing configuration may be adopted. The first field effecttransistor is a low withstand voltage field effect transistor, while thesecond field effect transistor is a high withstand voltage field effecttransistor. In addition, in this case, the following configuration maybe adopted. Voltage applied to the gate electrode of the first fieldeffect transistor is in a range from 0.5 to 0.8 volts, for example,while voltage applied to the gate electrode of the second field effecttransistor is in a range from 1.5 to 3.3 volts, for example. Note herethat whether a field effect transistor is suited for a low withstandvoltage field effect transistor or for a high withstand voltage fieldeffect transistor is greatly dependent on the sum total ofcross-sectional areas of a channel portion and a channel forming layerand on each thickness of a gate insulation film and a gate insulationlayer.

Whether the first field effect transistor is of an re-channel type or ofa p-channel type is determined by a work function of a materialconstituting the gate electrode, for example. Whether the second fieldeffect transistor is of an n-channel type or of a p-channel type is alsodetermined by a work function of a material constituting the gateelectrode, for example.

In a case where the channel portion or the channel forming layer is madeof Si in the semiconductor device of the present disclosure, the gateelectrode is made of such material as TiN, TaN, Al, TiAl, and W to formthe respective field effect transistors of the n-channel type. On theother hand, in a case where the channel portion or the channel forminglayer is made of SiGe, the gate electrode is made of material such asTiN and W to form the respective field effect transistors of thep-channel type.

In addition, the gate insulation film and the gate insulation layer maybe made of such material as SiON and SiO₂ or such high dielectricconstant material (what is generally called a High-k material) as HfO₂,HfAlON, and Y₂O₃.

The base included in the semiconductor device of the present disclosuremay be constituted by a silicon semiconductor substrate or an SOIsubstrate, for example. The channel portion and the channel forminglayer preferably have a crystalline nature, but may have apolycrystalline configuration, or may have an amorphous configurationdepending on cases. The semiconductor layer may be made of the materialconstituting the channel portion or the channel forming layer,specifically, silicon (Si), silicon-germanium (SiGe), germanium (Ge),and InGaAs. The channel portion, the channel forming layer, and thesemiconductor layer may be formed by such a forming method as epitaxialCVD, plasma CVD, and atomic layer CVD.

Thereafter, again by ALD, a gateinsulation film 15 ₂ (made of SiO₂) constituting a lower layer of thegate insulation film 14 is formed on the formed oxide film, and also agate insulation layer 25 ₂ (made of SiO₂) constituting a lower layer ofthe gate insulation layer 24 is formed on the gate insulation layer 25₁. The gate insulation film of each of the first field effecttransistors 10 n and 10 p is constituted by the gate insulation film 15₂. On the other hand, the gate insulation layer of each of the secondfield effect transistors 20 n and 20 p is constituted by a laminatedstructure of the gate insulation layer 25 ₁ and the gate insulationlayer 25 ₂. In addition, a second insulation lower layer 25′ (secondinsulation lower layers 25′₁ and 25′₂) having a thickness larger than athickness of the first insulation lower layer 15′ may be formed on thesurface of the base 30. In this case, the first insulation lower layer15′ is formed simultaneously with the gate insulation film 15 ₂, whilethe second insulation lower layer 25′ is formed simultaneously with thegate insulation layer 25 ₁ and the gate insulation layer 25 ₂. As aresult, a structure depicted in each of (A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 37 and(A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 38 is obtained. A similar structure is alsoprovidable in each of the second region 32 and the fourth region 34.

Alternatively, the gate insulation layer 25 ₂ may be formed on each ofthe second field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p without forming thegate insulation film 15 ₂ on each of the first field effect transistors10 n and 10 p. In this case, the gate insulation film of each of thefirst field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p is constituted by the gateinsulation film 15 ₁. On the other hand, the gate insulation layer ofeach of the second field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p is constitutedby a laminated structure of the gate insulation layer 25 ₁ and the gateinsulation layer 25 ₂. In this case as well, the second insulation lowerlayer 25′ having a thickness larger than the thickness of the firstinsulation lower layer 15′ may be formed on the surface of the base 30.The first insulation lower layer 15′ is formed simultaneously with thegate insulation film 15 ₁, while the second insulation lower layer 25′is formed simultaneously with the gate insulation layer 25 ₁ and thegate insulation layer 25 ₂.

Alternatively, formation of the gate insulation film 15 on each of thefirst field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p and formation of the gateinsulation layer 25 on each of the second field effect transistors 20 nand 20 p may be performed independently. In this case, the gateinsulation film of each of the first field effect transistors 10 n and10 p is constituted by the gate insulation film 15. On the other hand,the gate insulation layer of each of the second field effect transistors20 n and 20 p is constituted by the gate insulation layer 25. In thiscase as well, the second insulation lower layer 25′ having a thicknesslarger than the thickness of the first insulation lower layer 15′ may beformed on the surface of the base 30. In this case, the first insulationlower layer 15′ is formed simultaneously with the gate insulation film15, while the second insulation lower layer 25′ is formed simultaneouslywith the gate insulation layer 25.

The gate insulation film 15 constituting each of the first field effecttransistors 10 n and 10 p is formed by either the first ALD or thesecond ALD, while the gate insulation layer 25 constituting each of thesecond field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p is formed by the first andsecond ALD. Accordingly, the gate insulation film 15 and the gateinsulation layer 25 each having a desired thickness can be obtained bycontrolling a thickness of an SiO₂ film or an SiO₂ layer formed by thefirst ALD and a thickness of an SiO₂ film or an SiO₂ layer formed by thesecond ALD. Alternatively, the gate insulation film 15 and the gateinsulation layer 25 each having a desired thickness may be obtained byforming a single layer of the gate insulation film 15 on each of thefirst field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p and forming a plurality ofthe gate insulation layers 25 on each of the second field effecttransistors 20 n and 20 p, or by independently performing formation ofthe gate insulation film 15 on each of the first field effecttransistors 10 n and 10 p and formation of the gate insulation layer 25on each of the second field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p.

[Step-170C]

Subsequently, the gate insulation film 16 and the gate insulation layer26 constituting upper layers of the gate insulation film 14 and the gateinsulation layer 24 are formed by ALD on the gate insulation film 15 ₂and the gate insulation layer 25 ₂. Each of the gate insulation film 16and the gate insulation layer 26 is made of HfO₂. Moreover, a firstinsulation upper layer 16′ and a second insulation upper layer 26′ maybe formed on the surface of the base 30. As a result, a structuredepicted in each of (A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 39 and (A), (B), and (C)in FIG. 40 is obtained. A similar structure is also providable in eachof the second region 32 and the fourth region 34. [0070]

By performing the processes described above, the first insulation layer14′ (having a configuration similar to the laminated configuration ofthe gate insulation film 15 ₂ and the gate insulation film 16) is formedon the surface of the base 30 between the first gate electrode 17 n inthe lowermost layer and the surface of the base 30, and the secondinsulation layer 24′ (having a configuration similar to the laminatedconfiguration of the gate insulation layer 25 ₁, the gate insulationlayer 25 ₂, and the gate insulation layer 26) is formed on the surfaceof the base 30 between the gate insulation layer 24 and the surface ofthe base 30. An insulation layer having a laminated configurationsimilar to that of the first insulation layer 14′ and the secondinsulation layer 24′ is also formed on the side surface of the side wall53. However, this insulation layer is not depicted in the figures otherexcept for FIGS. 41 and 42.

[Step-180]

Thereafter, the gate electrodes 17 n, 17 p, 27 n, and 27 p made of TiNare provided in regions inside the side wall 53 by a known method. As aresult, a structure depicted in each of (A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 41 and(A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 42 is obtained. A similar structure is alsoprovidable in each of the second region 32 and the fourth region 34.Furthermore, conductive material layers 19 and 29 each made of tungsten(W) are formed on the gate electrodes 17 n, 17 p, 27 n, and 27 p by aknown method. As a result, a structure depicted in a schematic partialcross-sectional diagram of FIGS. 1, 2A, and 2B is obtained.

Accordingly, such a semiconductor device whichincludes both the second field effect transistor having a relativelythick gate insulation film with respect to the first field effecttransistor and the first field effect transistor having a nanowirestructure or the like is providable. In this case, driving of the firstfield effect transistor at a low voltage and driving of the second fieldeffect transistor at a high voltage are achievable. Moreover, loweringof resistance of the channel forming layer of the second field effecttransistor, raising of transconductance g_(m), and reduction ofparasitic capacitance are achievable. Note that parasitic resistance canbe further reduced by enlarging each width of the channel forming layers23 n and 23 p of the second field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p.

According to Modification 1 of Embodiment 1, the gate insulation layer25 having a large thickness is formed on each of the second field effecttransistors 20 n and 20 p in [Step-170A] described above, and the gateinsulation layer 26 is formed between the gate insulation layer 25 andthe surface of the base 30 in [Step-170C] described above, i.e., a spacebetween the surface of the base 30 and each of the channel forminglayers 23 n and 23 p is filled with the gate insulation layer 24. As aresult, obtained is such a structure where the top surface and the sidesurface of the gate insulation layer 24 are covered with the gateelectrodes (third gate electrodes) 17 n and 17 p constituting the secondfield effect transistors 20 n and 20 p as depicted in a schematicpartial cross-sectional diagram in FIG. 4.

However, a structure similar to thestructure described in Embodiment 1 can be obtained.

In addition, in Modification 4 of Embodiment 1, depending on cases, thechannel forming layers 23 n and 23 p of the second field effecttransistors 20 n and 20 p may be made of silicon (Si), for example.

Thereafter, the insulation material 71 is etched and left in thegroove to form the element separation region 70 having theshallow-trench structure. Note that formation of the element separationregions 70 in the first field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p andformation of the element separation regions 70 in the second fieldeffect transistors 20 n and 20 p may be performed either simultaneouslyor independently.

[Step-220]

[Step-230]

Thereafter, an SiN layer is formed on the entire surface. This Sin layeris etched back to form a side wall 53 made of SiN on a side surface ofthe dummy gate portion 52. However, the side wall 53 is not formed onportions corresponding to both ends of the channel portions 13 n and 13p and both ends of the channel forming layers 23 n and 23 p. As aresult, a structure depicted in each of (A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 23 and(A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 44 is obtained.

[Step-240]

Thereafter, a phosphor-doped SiC layer 54 n for forming the source/drainregion 18 n constituting the first field effect transistor 10 n and thesource/drain region 28 n constituting the second field effect transistor20 n is epitaxially grown from the surface of the exposed base 30 by aknown method, and then patterned by a known method.

As a result, the insulation material layer64 is formed between the surface of the base 30 and each of the first Silayers 42 of the laminated structures on the third region 33 and thefourth region 34. The insulation material layer 64 extends from aportion below each of the first Si layers 42 on the third region 33 andthe fourth region 34 toward the surface of the base 30. As a result, astructure depicted in each of (A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 48 is obtained.

[Step-260]

Subsequently, the dummy gate portion 52 on each of the first region 31and the second region 32 is removed by a known method, and theunillustrated dummy oxide layer is further removed by a known method.Then, the third Si—Ge layer 45, the second Si—Ge layer 43, and the firstSi—Ge layer 41 in the laminated structure of the first region 31 areselectively removed (see (A), (B), and (C) of FIG. 29). Moreover, thethird Si layer 46, the second Si layer 44, and the first Si layer 42 inthe laminated structure of the second region 32 are selectively removed(see (A), (B), and (C) of FIG. 31). In addition, outer peripheries ofthe third Si layer 46, the second Si layer 44, and the first Si layer 42exposed in the first region 31, the third Si—Ge layer 45, the secondSi—Ge layer 43, and the first Si—Ge layer 41 exposed in the secondregion 32, the first Si layer 42 exposed in the third region 33, and thefirst Si layer 42 exposed in the fourth region 34 are thermally oxidizedto form an oxide film. After this thermal oxidation treatment, across-sectional shape of each of the nanowire structures 12 n and 12 pof the first field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p having the nanowirestructure becomes circular. Note that these oxide films are not depictedin the figures. As a result, a structure depicted in each of (A), (B),and (C) in FIG. 33 is obtained. A similar structure is also obtained inthe second region 32.

[Step-270A]

Thereafter, the gate insulation film 15 ₁ (made of SiO₂) constituting alower layer of the gate insulation film 14 is formed on the formed oxidefilm by atomic layer deposition (ALD), and also the gate insulationlayer 25 ₁ (made of SiO₂) constituting a lower layer of the gateinsulation layer 24 is formed on the formed oxide film. As a result, astructure depicted in each of (A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 35 is obtained.A similar structure is also providable in the second region

[Step-270B]

Subsequently, the gate insulation film 15 ₁ and the first insulationlower layer 15′ of each of the first field effect transistors 10 n and10 p are removed by a known method. Thereafter, again by using ALD, thegate insulation film 15 ₂ (made of SiO₂) constituting a lower layer ofthe gate insulation film 14 is formed on the formed oxide film, and alsothe gate insulation layer 25 ₂ (made of SiO₂) constituting a lower layerof the gate insulation layer 24 is formed on the gate insulation layer25 ₁. The gate insulation film of each of the first field effecttransistors 10 n and 10 p is constituted by the gate insulation film 15₂. On the other hand, the gate insulation layer of each of the secondfield effect transistors 20 n and 20 p is constituted by a laminatedstructure of the gate insulation layer 25 ₁ and the gate insulationlayer 25 ₂. The first insulation lower layer 15′ is formedsimultaneously with the gate insulation film 15 ₂. As a result, astructure depicted in each of (A), (B), and (C) in FIG. 37 is obtained.A similar structure is also providable in the second region 32.

Alternatively, the gate insulation layer 25 ₂ may be formed on each ofthe second field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p without forming thegate insulation film 15 ₂ on each of the first field effect transistors10 n and 10 p. In this case, the gate insulation film of each of thefirst field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p is constituted by the gateinsulation film 15 ₁. On the other hand, the gate insulation layer ofeach of the second field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p is constitutedby a laminated structure of the gate insulation layer 25 ₁ and the gateinsulation layer 25 ₂. In this case, the first insulation lower layer15′ is also formed simultaneously with the gate insulation film 15 ₁.

Alternatively, formation of the gate insulation film 15 on each of thefirst field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p and formation of the gateinsulation layer 25 on each of the second field effect transistors 20 nand 20 p may be performed independently. In this case, the gateinsulation film of each of the first field effect transistors 10 n and10 p is constituted by the gate insulation film 15. On the other hand,the gate insulation layer of each of the first field effect transistors20 n and 20 p is constituted by the gate insulation layer 25. In thiscase, the first insulation lower layer 15′ is also formed simultaneouslywith the gate insulation film 15.

The gate insulation film 15 constituting each of the first field effecttransistors 10 n and 10 p is formed by either the first ALD or thesecond ALD, while the gate insulation layer 25 constituting each of thesecond field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p is formed by the first andsecond ALD. Accordingly, the gate insulation film 15 and the gateinsulation layer 25 each having a desired thickness can be obtained bycontrolling a thickness of an SiO₂ film or an SiO₂ layer formed by thefirst ALD and a thickness of an SiO₂ film or an SiO₂ layer formed by thesecond ALD. Alternatively, the gate insulation film 15 and the gateinsulation layer 25 each having a desired thickness may be obtained byforming a single layer of the gate insulation film 15 on each of thefirst field effect transistors 10 n and 10 p and forming a plurality ofthe gate insulation layers 25 on each of the second field effecttransistors 20 n and 20 p, or by independently performing formation ofthe gate insulation film 15 on each of the first field effecttransistors 10 n and 10 p and formation of the gate insulation layer 25on each of the second field effect transistors 20 n and 20 p.

[Step-270C]

Subsequently, the gate insulation film 16 and the gate insulation layer26 constituting upper layers of the gate insulation film 14 and the gateinsulation layer 24 are formed by ALD on the gate insulation film 15 ₂and the gate insulation layer 25 ₂. Each of the gate insulation film 16and the gate insulation layer 26 is made of HfO₂.

Inaddition, the insulation material layer having a small thickness (e.g.,a thickness identical or similar to the thickness of the channelportion) is formed between the surface of the base and the bottomsurface of each of the channel forming layers constituting the secondfield effect transistor. Accordingly, a semiconductor device whichincludes both the second field effect transistor capable of controllingthe threshold voltage V_(th) by application of reverse bias and thefirst field effect transistor having a nanowire structure or the like isprovidable.

In addition,the insulation material layer 64 is formed on the entire surface andthen etched back. As a result, the insulation material layer 64 isformed between the surface of the base 30 and each of the first Silayers 42 of the laminated structures in the third region 33 and thefourth region 34, and the interlayer insulation layer 65 is formedbetween the semiconductor layers 61.

It is sufficient if the semiconductor layer 61 thusconfigured is formed by introducing appropriate impurities into thesemiconductor layer 61 by ion implantation, or by collectivelyimplanting ions into the semiconductor layer 61. Alternatively,formation of the semiconductor layer 61 and execution of ionimplantation may be performed repeatedly by the number of layers of thesemiconductor layer.
